The international community
regards Darfur as the worst
humanitarian crisis in the world.
An estimated 2 million people have been displaced from
their homes by the government of Sudan and the allied
“Janjaweed” militias in the region.
As many as 400,000 people have
been killed in Darfur – most of them
black Africans.
